Yeah, but I mean just a link to get directly the YT.
I always compare the original YT (HPs on Macbook) to the in room recording or listening. I do even compare the playback on my system at home to the original YT or original Spotify. These comparisons are very interesting and helpful.

Is the source in your main system digital?

People can have whatever reference they want when judging the quality of their systems. My point is if you’re using a digital file as the reference against which you judge your system, it makes more sense that your system has a digital source than an analog source because you may be streaming in both cases. A vinyl record as a source will almost never sound like a YouTube video digital file so the comparison is less relevant.

Whoever wrote that the future of hi-fi is YouTube actually made a pretty interesting comment.

I perfectly understand your point of view and was just in a playful mood.
